[pallid lake]

Good luck son

Just hope you landed on arthas's ass cheeks that dont have aggressive sentinels

They can be quite nice for exploration

Just wish le collossus was a mobile base

[little halo]

Is the Nexus Anomaly missing any functions you wish it had? Other than a trade terminal?

[pallid lake]

Build terminal for corvettes if we don't have one already

Trade terminal

Among others

[empty marlin]

mac support

jk

[little halo]

Trade terminal I did on Sunday night

[jovial solar]

gekburgers but you know that already

[little halo]

Looking for other things that are needed

[paper siren]

[pallid lake]

Free geknip on anomaly when?

[gritty verge]

Eyoo :3

[cunning iris]

Can't think on anything else other than what we have in space stations. Something related to tainted metal I guess: either a way to spend it or get it

[gritty verge]

I just managed to get on the space station after making my first base :D

[empty marlin]

why is geknip fine but nipnip buds will get me shot at

[cloud ember]

i want bathroom

[gritty verge]

I have no idea what any of those words mean

[cloud ember]

its a big place to walk around in, the anomaly

[empty marlin]

also why does everyone on at 5 AM have Windows 95 serial codes in their usernames

[little halo]

Friend codes

[cloud ember]

surely a restroom must have been considered but, due to development constraints, was never a feature

[little halo]

There is actually a model in the files for a toilet. They just didn't add it (yet?)

[little halo]

I had it in my name for a while, then I got sick of how ugly it looked 😄

[cloud ember]

Who knows, before this update came out, people datamined corvette parts and thought those were for freighters

[gritty verge]

To ask for advice I should get into the help channel right?

[cloud ember]

the bathroom could be its own experience, separate from the aforementioned corvett

[little halo]

That's a timed message, just a reminder for people that don't know

ACtually, advice here is good

Help is more troubleshooting

[empty marlin]

it'd be really, really hard to forget

but ye, I get it

[storm pebble]

was there update or anything? Corvette guns iare no longer sable and that's in 3 difreent saves

[lethal adder]

Also can run !faq-beginnertips in #bot-spam

[gritty verge]

Well I just opened the game yesterday
Just wanted to ask if I just go along with the first quest(?) I got or if I should like do something else(?)

[storm pebble]

They simply fire in random directions

[gritty verge]

Oh word?

[little halo]

Not aware of any targeting issues with corvette weapons currently

[lethal adder]

Indeed, word. Foshizzle

[little halo]

My nizzle

[spring raptor]

Goodmorning peeps

[gritty verge]

Hewwo

[lethal adder]

I set my system for a file integrity check before leaving for work so here’s hoping

[gritty verge]

Thanks btw :D

[storm pebble]

And it changes, but never fires at curso or at center. These in centerdo no damage

[empty marlin]

well heck

[spring raptor]

Imagine an anomaly trading hub

[empty marlin]

bought a ton of platinum because I kept needing it

now no idea what for

[little halo]

Is that with or without an enemy?

[spring raptor]

Probably behind that big door in the rnd department in the nexus

[little halo]

Platinum is only for building

[empty marlin]

ok, thanks

[storm pebble]

both. With enemy it fires at anything but enemy. If I use phase beam, there s phase mea aimign at enemy and one that aims otherwise

[spring raptor]

I use it for expedition rewards i couldn't get

[jovial solar]

can be refined to nanites as well

Not that its efficient but hey better than nothing

[storm pebble]

With photon cannot there are shots that follow cursor but do no damage, and these that aim randomly, but do damage

[spring raptor]

Oh wait.. I'm thinking of quicksilver

[little halo]

Without enemies, I have to think that's a reticle/targeting positioning issue. With enemies, it could be an aimassist issue

Some weapons have really shitty aim assist, like it's better to just turn it off

[storm pebble]

Ths change is like, overnight

[little halo]

That image the locators are actually shifted, though

Looks like up and left

[storm pebble]

someone posted video with same bug, but they deleted it now

[little halo]

That's the deep state trying to coverup their tracks

[lethal adder]

#no-mans-sky message

Nope put up a better one

[storm pebble]

My mose points at center.And that changes. Dependign on ship's orientation

[little halo]

Yeah, that's a locator issue I think

[lethal adder]

Happened after last patch

[little halo]

Might have to do with the changes to SHOOT locators in the most recent patch

[lethal adder]

Third person everything works fine

[little halo]

There used to be a hard cap of 4 SHOOT locators, but they increased that. Might have caused some shifting?

oh, only 1st? That explains why I haven't seen it

[cunning iris]

Does that happen with all weapons? Infra-knife too?

[storm pebble]

It lchooses wrong one for actual fire Xd

[lethal adder]

Photon, can’t tell with positron of course

[storm pebble]

Well, you saw with ballistae

[lethal adder]

And phase beam works for me but comes from weird places

[cunning iris]

That's... concerning.

[little halo]

From weird places would fit with bad locator positions, and the aimassist is counteracting it

[lethal adder]

I reported it first thing

[little halo]

What ship type? I'll look at the model

[lethal adder]

Corvette

[little halo]

Which cockpit type?

[lethal adder]

Titan

[little halo]

Ok, I'll look

[lethal adder]

My steps when getting home was to try a different save and different cockpit types. But that’s in 10 hours 😭

[cunning iris]

We are going to see a 6.06.1 for this aren't we

[lethal adder]

I hope so soon

[sleek quest]

F

[sleek quest]

What's borked?

[cunning iris]

(It's too serious, I'm kinda hoping for a quick hotfix)

[lethal adder]

Same

[cunning iris]

#no-mans-sky message

[lethal adder]

First person weapons on corvettes

[little halo]

I hope not, just because I despise the x.xx.y numbering

[storm pebble]

Vew rotates, ship doesn't but tries to fire. That's result

[sleek quest]

Ngl that's hilarious

[lethal adder]

Funny and infuriating

[little halo]

They've only done it like 3 times that I recall, this being one of those

[sleek quest]

Maybe put a gun under in the center?

[cunning iris]

I'm surprised they have done it before lol. When was the last time?

[storm pebble]

You kno.. the first person view doesn't match ship model orientation. My phase beam is on top in front.

[lethal adder]

Ship has three turrets. One under cockpit and one in each side

[sleek quest]

And it's still shooting like a stormtrooper?

[lethal adder]

Yes with phantom gunner on the far right

[little halo]

I think the first person appearance is not related to what emplacements you have

[lethal adder]

I hate flying in third person

[sleek quest]

Hmmm, gentlemen, I have an idea for a pact related to this

[cunning iris]

With corvettes that's a bit difficult

They occupy 1/3 of the screen lol.

[storm pebble]

something like this happens

[sleek quest]

I say we won't get a fix for that this week, you say it's gonna drop this week

Loser had to chat exclusively in #off-topic-bond-james-bond for 2 days

[lethal adder]

That channel is cursed. No bet

[sleek quest]

That's the point of the punishment

[little halo]

The vfx are offset, that might be why

[jovial solar]

bold of you to assume I chat with sense here

[little halo]

Orange dot is the vfx location

[sleek quest]

And of course a mod cannot join the pact

[little halo]

So if the two locators are based on that, they will be shifted left

[ruby beacon]

why is the origin point there 😭

[lethal adder]

Sean got into the sacramental wine

[little halo]

Damnit, Sean! Again?!

[storm pebble]

Offset in realtio to what thoguh. It ooks like while you yaw in first person view, ship doesn't yaw

but it roolls though..so it becomes weirder

[lethal adder]

I would love true yaw pitch and roll

[little halo]

Shoot 1 and Shoot 2 are properly aligned. I have to think it's the VFX locator

dashed line on the right goes to SHOOT2

[storm pebble]

Oh, ship model can be open in blender?

[exotic lynx]

whacky origin point placements

[little halo]

Ah, I was wrong, there's a VFX on the left and then a reference to recreate it on the right, so they are mirrored. No misplacement

[lethal adder]

So I guess I’ll play something from steam sale while I wait for patch lol

[acoustic berry]

seems to go to the right to me

by a bit

[little halo]

Look at the end point of the dashed line relative to the grid

[storm pebble]

My turrets like this.. and top one is phase one. SOmehow it produces only one beam

[ruby beacon]

pacific drive

[little halo]

If offset, definitely not enough to account for the screenshots

[ruby beacon]

Peak game

[empty marlin]

what's stopping you from playing 6.05?

just out of curiosity

[little halo]

Switch?

[lethal adder]

6.06 is the current patch

[exotic lynx]

dashed lines are indicators that something is parrented to objects with origins there

what is parented i dont know

[storm pebble]

downgrading os same save is bad idea (tm)

[exotic lynx]

but something is

[lethal adder]

And going back a patch I’d rather play something else than bother with

[empty marlin]

Ah, was just curious if there was a specific bug, but yea, understandable

[lethal adder]

Yes specific bug

#no-mans-sky message

[exotic lynx]

the thing fella with red squares marked were verts being diff

[storm pebble]

I can just play with my new sentinel TIE defender

[empty marlin]

oof

[cunning iris]

That's not happening if using regular ships though, right?

[lethal adder]

Who has a regular ship??

😂

[ruby beacon]

[little halo]

...yes, I know how NMS models work in Blender. There are two locators, one for each SHOOT. The dashed lines are for each, and have similar endpoints, just mirrored

[empty marlin]

I have one.. can't remember where I put it..

[cunning iris]

Starborn is still my main ship... 👉 👈

[exotic lynx]

origins

[little halo]

Phoenix or Runner?

[empty marlin]

radiant pillar 4 lyfe

[cunning iris]

Phoenix, always.

[little halo]

They share the same origin. 0.0. I don't know what you are trying to say.

[storm pebble]

potahto, pohtato

[craggy furnace]

Yooo. I found one of my oldest screenshots.

[little halo]

I like the tech on Runner, but the Phoenix definitely looks better

[lethal adder]

Telling Gumsk how models in NMS work is hilarious to me

[exotic lynx]

not my point

im just blender addict

[lethal adder]

Still makes me giggle

[little halo]

But...what are you trying to say?

[exotic lynx]

it hurts me when things aint called how they are named

[little halo]

But, I was talking about the endpoitns, not the origin, so I didn't say origin?

[exotic lynx]

like how electrician feels pain inside after looking what previous one did wires in box

[lethal adder]

It’s okay man problemo

[storm pebble]

locator, origin, same thing. Locator is older, AutoDesk term

[little halo]

I tried to steal the glass material from the phoenix, but couldn't get it to work

LOCATOR is the name in the NMS files. It's the node type

REFERENCE, ATTACHMENT, MESH, LOCATOR, etc

[lethal adder]

Anyway. I can’t test anything else until late tonight.

[exotic lynx]

im glad i stopped ripping appart games

[storm pebble]

yeah, and it's named so because ikely they used AutoDesk software to deal with it. In AutoCAd, 3d studion, MAya the origin point is locator

[ruby beacon]

@little halo i wanna ask smth, if i move all of the nms files to another storage, all of the mods would still work right?

Since its in the folders

[little halo]

Should, but I can't promise 🙂

[ruby beacon]

Im using the steam moving tool thingy

It should move the mods too right?

[little halo]

We don't really know what they use. AFAIK, nothing really matches up to what they put out and it's likely some proprietary derivation

[ruby beacon]

Aightt

[storm pebble]

noot sure

I'd save the confg files folder , that's where unlocked stuff is stored

[exotic lynx]

ye idk how it is in those
closest thing i touched to one of em was solid edge which is just educational offbrand cad

[little halo]

Steam move might not grab the MODS folder; I don't know

Easy enough to move it yourself if it doesn't

[ruby beacon]

😔

Yeah

Ill just backup my saves and that folder

[exotic lynx]

and not rly for long either bc students licence expired after year ended

[little halo]

I haven't done anything other than Blender since literally release 11 of AutoCAD

[storm pebble]

sounds familiar.. it that one whch was small standalone AutoCAd lookAlike? I think I was plannign SecondLife homes in it

[exotic lynx]

the siemens one

looks similar but has less functions

[storm pebble]

Ah that.. ACIS family

I touched that in 1997 , once

[exotic lynx]

tho it aint surprising since it was given to us on student licences for just a year

[storm pebble]

we had like, very CAd course at University, couple of labs in each. AutoCAD, solid works, 3d studio, that one, a few circuit sims

[little halo]

Anyway, I don't see anything in the model that would explain that left and up offset

[exotic lynx]

circuit sims i like

[storm pebble]

Back then? One was command line. Other worked on DOS wiht B&W graphics 😛

[exotic lynx]

standard circuits , LAD , FBD , function lists

graphcets

[storm pebble]

Command-line autoCAD.. was interesting. Later I exploited hat in AutoCAd 2000

[ruby beacon]

probably forgor to move it back

[storm pebble]

I don't think that's model. Try yaw while shooting, see that offset changes. It's related to camera

[exotic lynx]

ouch

[little halo]

I checked another cockpit style and it was also properly aligned

I'll have to look at cameras later. It's on my list for later in the week

[ruby beacon]

one thing i find interesting

The gun VFX seems to change origins when youre in 1st person

Like theyre always located at the L & R side under your cockpit

But i placed my guns

On top of my ship

And they show the vfx correctly at 3rd person view

[storm pebble]

when I place on top, one ray comes from top, others still bottom

[slate siren]

Ever since the update, my shots no longer align with my reticle on the corvette so I have to run from all pirates. 😑

[ruby beacon]

Oh yeah

New bug

[storm pebble]

Now if that phrase can be taken out of context..

[ruby beacon]

[lethal adder]

Yep it’s happening in first person view

[exotic lynx]

yall are trying to figure out gun vfx on ship

[cunning iris]

Just go 3rd person on battles for now.

[ruby beacon]

I always go 3rd person

[slate siren]

Ah OK. Thanks for the tip

[ruby beacon]

I like to look at my ship

[lethal adder]

As a cockpit flyer this is infuriating

[exotic lynx]

some of us got no choice

cockpit lodged in between parts

[little halo]

Yeah, the gun VFX in third person are based on part location, but the first person are fixed

[drowsy cloak]

This update may have broken 1st person shooting, but now at least my gun pod does the shotty right

[ruby beacon]

Oh so im not crazy

[ruby beacon]

Holy thick beam

Siiickk

[exotic lynx]

glass aint glassing

[little halo]

Many things in NMS have different methods of representation for 1st and 3rd person

[ruby beacon]

How much did you stack?

[exotic lynx]

mining beam

[ashen tapir]

Finally home good night yall

[storm pebble]

yep, only camera rotates, lol. I roll 180 degressm and now ray that was on top is at bottom

[little halo]

1st or 3rd?

[storm pebble]

1st

[drowsy cloak]

2 Deadeye, 2 Phase beam in front, 3 photons right behind

[ruby beacon]

Oooh

[storm pebble]

So offsets are calculated in relation of origin of ship, but not in reference frame linked to camera

[exotic lynx]

beam bits look neat inside deadeyes

[void wadi]

I am now satisfied! Put in 10 hours upon buying it yesterday 💪

[ruby beacon]

just did it, it does grab the MODS folder

[storm pebble]

It's global refence frame. As in X, Y, Z of space

[ruby beacon]

Niceeeeee

[exotic lynx]

steam sale strikes again

[void wadi]

I missed it last sale and my friend has been wanting to play, so I was hoping on it going on sale again for the autumn sale, probably would've bought it full price anyways, but saved money is saved money!

[storm pebble]

offset in global reference frame instead of constrained one. That's the bug

[ruby beacon]

Hell yeah!

[median trail]

Yay im unbanned

[ruby beacon]

[median trail]

Nah it was something id rather not say

[ruby beacon]

thanks mods

[median trail]

But i mean

[sudden anchor]

Dang...I just checked. $24 for NMS!

[storm pebble]

What's trading view? screen share?

[median trail]

It was anything but off topic

[sudden anchor]

$24 is practically free for this game.

[pallid quiver]

Does this server have a tag thing I can put on my name

[sudden anchor]

ya

[ruby beacon]

$11 for me

[pallid quiver]

And how do i do it

[ruby beacon]

Hooray for regional pricing

[median trail]

Chat, how rich have you been without selling starship Ai valves from random people

[void wadi]

REALLL ITS GREAT! I see why people say it's worth the $60!

[ruby beacon]

😋

[empty marlin]

idr how much I paid, but it was more than either of those, I think

[pallid quiver]

How do I

[median trail]

I've been like 50 million rich legally

[sudden anchor]

Gear icon, profiles and server tag

[ruby beacon]

11 bucks for this?

what a steal

[sudden anchor]

Totally with all these updates 🙂

[void wadi]

and its VR Supported!

[empty marlin]

It's easily worth $30, will definitely be worth $60 in five years when it stops crashing all the time

[little halo]

Definitely worth 60 USD with all the updates included. 24 USD is just a no-brainer

[sudden anchor]

I think nms crashed on me like four times out of 600 hours of playing...

[void wadi]

yea the only issue I've had was after like 3 hours of playing my game gets all laggy so I have to reset for 60 frames again, however I blame my computer!

[sudden anchor]

at least on PC, that is.

[empty marlin]

good luck with expedition multiplayer

[ruby beacon]

Me with 800hrs, 0 natural crashes

[sudden anchor]

Oh I don't touch multiplayer...

[ruby beacon]

Only crashed bcs of mods

[sudden anchor]

I haz no frens

[cunning iris]

What about the unnatural ones?

[ruby beacon]

And i do multiplayer

[little halo]

NMS will never crash less, IMO

[ruby beacon]

Mods

[empty marlin]

oh yeah, I've had 0 crashes outside multiplayer

[ruby beacon]

Uncompatible stuff

[storm pebble]

I don't get that overtime.. for me it gets laggy if I alt-tab ofr if there somecrazy player around with 500 pieces corvette

[empty marlin]

I'm js, it's probably worth 50% off that the game lets other people's mods crash you

[void wadi]

oh wait yeah my game crashes when I plug in a controller, very weird issue, however I've taped the cord on the controller so it doesn't come out anymore!

[cunning iris]

Hmm, no corvettes with 600 parts then

[void wadi]

that might be it! I alt-tab SO MUCH, the game freaks when I do it 😂

[ruby beacon]

i can enjoy stuff like this np

[little halo]

Very rarely. The current complexity removal mod is the main one in the history of NMS modding

[ruby beacon]

bbut why naht

Ill just keep that corvette to me self

[empty marlin]

yea, but right now, and for more than a week, turning on multiplayer crashes the game every twenty minutes because of somebody else's mod

[storm pebble]

Is that ORi ship?

[ruby beacon]

i... Actually never crashed with corvettes

[empty marlin]

mods should be able to crash a game, other people's mods should not be able to crash my game, and if I'd paid $60 for that, I'd want a refund and come back in 6 months lol

[ruby beacon]

Bowie from GOTG

[little halo]

That author should not have released an unlimited version of that mod, and HG needs to put the kibosh on it

[ruby beacon]

200 tops

[empty marlin]

or

allow the mod and just do bounds checking like you have to do in every single program ever made

[little halo]

Being a mod author entails certain responsiblities to the gaming community

[jovial solar]

... it does?

[little halo]

Violating that threatens the existence of modding at all

[empty marlin]

and when you forget one, because that's normal, maybe don't just leave it like that for a month

[jovial solar]

another option HG could consider: loading only a fixed number of corvette parts

You made one with 300 parts? Cool, but know others will see only 100 or whatever the intended limit is

[ruby beacon]

but for real, idk wtf are these guys doing with 500 pieces corvettes

Like

[little halo]

I'm quite sure they are aware of the issue. It's not exactly a secret. I'm sure 6.07 or whatever will address it

[jovial solar]

Doesnt matter if it's a mess, you build it for yourself

[empty marlin]

I respect your view but kinda disagree; I feel mods should be totally unfettered, without too much moral load to deter new authors. The author of the game itself should just, you know, do error checking, and when a problem is found, not take a month to fix one single issue that could be fixed with a few checks that's crashing a vast swath of players

[ruby beacon]

My ships are huuuge and im barely at 300 pieces

And i cannot think of anything else to place

[little halo]

For a AAA game I would agree. I disagree for an indy that has multiplayer and allows modding

They could easily flip a switch and just block all mods, so mod authors need to be careful not to make that their best option

[empty marlin]

you know, I'll concede that. It's rare to allow mods in multiplayer, or even multiplayer without kernel anticheat any more, and things like this are absolutely the justification companies make for those things

[wary moth]

What difficulty y'all play on

[ruby beacon]

normal

[sleek quest]

Normal

[little halo]

Normal or Survival, depending on mood

[jovial solar]

thing is mods in NMS are mostly local and so far only limited data was synced between players in MP instances

It was th Voyagers update that opened these floodgates so to say

[sleek quest]

If I turn off MP, would that fix the infinite warp bug?

[ruby beacon]

I very much agree with this

[jovial solar]

Lots of people jumping in, going ham on corvettes made kinda the 1st serious instance of this kinda problem

[ruby beacon]

We cant have nice things

[little halo]

Yeah, it's rarely something that can affect others, and even more rare that there's a mod that affects the situation. But this is that case.

[jovial solar]

there is a group of established modders who have years of experience with the game and know what goes and what does not

[cunning iris]

That's the best solution in my opinion; keeps both modded games and unmodded uncompromised

[empty marlin]

honestly like, neither the mod nor the game were at fault at first. There was no check in the game because the game already didn't allow you to build more, and the mod wasn't at fault because it successfully allowed building more, but once it became known it was crashing unmodded games, it was on the author to pull it until a fix could be made, and when the mod author didn't, it was on hellogames that they didn't add 3-5 lines of code to just not spawn in a corvette that violates the build limits

[little halo]

I don't know the author, so I am not trying to disparage them. I am not saying they don't care about the community and only wanted the DP. I just think it was a poor judgement

[empty marlin]

so it's all understandable until the lack of response for.. however long, at least a month, and then it's on both pretty equally

[jovial solar]

meanwhile Voyagers brought lot of new people in who jump in, change stuff willy nilly and enjoy lots of downloads

and they can't really do anything now, what take the popular mod down? limit it and have existing users have worse experience?

[little halo]

Like I purposely limit my base building radius mod to 20k because I'm worried what sorts of shenanigans people could come up with to screw with other players. It's a super easy edit to make, but most griefers can't count past three.

[jovial solar]

Im afraid its only up to HG to come up with a good solution, they set up the network layers of the game, they know what each platform is capable of

we can (and should) voice our concerns about it though

[empty marlin]

add a few lines of code to have a build limit on spawn and not just on building, and allow the mod to override that, nothing changes except the crashes go away

[little halo]

Lack of response from HG is the norm and is just "we don't know what they are talking about or trying to do". They don't communicate anything to the outside world

Like, we haven't heard a single thing about LNF for what, two years now? Any normal company, something would have leaked

[jovial solar]

not true we know its gonna have boats

[empty marlin]

that makes me feel bad for giving them money and encouraging that behavior

[ruby beacon]

😭 😭 😭

[little halo]

WTF BOATS!?!?!

[empty marlin]

but the game is good

[ruby beacon]

Yeah

Corvette are boats

[jovial solar]

yeah I know huge leak, 50 YT videos a week worth

[little halo]

No, the bad effects are what caused this behavior

They learned that it's better to say nothing and not have people assume promises

[empty marlin]

that's a good point

[jovial solar]

a statement on whatever the heck happened to Switch update would be nice though

[little halo]

Hell, there's probably some neckbeard still claiming that Sean PROMISED No Man's Sky would cure his diabetes.

[empty marlin]

still, just saying, lack of leaks on new game is one thing, total lack of fix or communication on a problem everybody including them knows, not the same, but we're lumping it together

[jovial solar]

But I assume they don't wanna throw shade and big N and be ruined

[little halo]

Assume HG watches and tries their best. They've earned that assumption

[empty marlin]

yesss, finally finished the expedition

Finished second optional, now gonna try to go back and finish the first. Current topic relevant on that 😂

turn on MP
lie in wait for a corvette
reload however many crashes that takes

[little halo]

Congrats, very short expedition, but pretty good intro to corvettes. I hope the autumn expedition (if there is one) is a bit longer

[ruby beacon]

IMO, underwhelming rewards..

[little halo]

To me, rewards are not the point, but I understand others like them

[ruby beacon]

And the deadeye is such a scam

[little halo]

I just like the reason to come back and have something different to do

[empty marlin]

It took me a long time because of my lack of experience, but considering that, it was definitely the right length for a somewhat-challenging-for-a-new-player hook

[ruby beacon]

Wdym precise

[sudden anchor]

Very underwhelming rewards I agree, but can't complain with this massive update for sure.

[ruby beacon]

😭

[ruby beacon]

Yeah

[empty marlin]

I wouldn't have complained about it at all if I had been able to leave MP on and didn't join the party so close to the deadline 😂

[little halo]

Don't throw "scam" around willy-nilly. There are plenty of scams in gaming already to not say "the adjective in the description doesn't match how the physics of the weapon would work"

[ruby beacon]

Aight mb

Its VERY different from what i expected

[little halo]

I agree though, it should have been a different weapon

[ruby beacon]

We have these humongous ships

[little halo]

And I'm probably overly sensitive as someone involved in the community for a long time

[ruby beacon]

And we cant get a exclusive weapon of some sorts?

[cunning iris]

Possibly it was. 😆

I wonder...

[split rapids]

Well my expectation for this expedition is that i can clone my legacy ships (and its tech modules) -_-

[languid forge]

Y'know, there's a bit of dark humor in the fact that as soon as I switch to the PC Game Pass version of No Man's Sky, it becomes the next platform to drag its feet wrt updates.

[little halo]

They did seem to mix up a couple of weapon types and emplacements

[ruby beacon]

Like a sniper type weapon wouldve been nice

Like the description said

precise

[cloud ember]

oh man

[little halo]

Gamepass doesn't have it yet?

sigh

[inner moss]

Imagine if having one actually changed the Positron to a single slug weapon, do you know how broken that would be

[cloud ember]

carrying over corvettes to expeditions

[ruby beacon]

Instead we got the polar opposite of precise

[cloud ember]

that’s gonna be hilarious

[ruby beacon]

Yeah

[little halo]

Hmm, I wonder if spread can be modded

[ruby beacon]

Like a single shot physical projectile type stuff

[cloud ember]

Should’ve just made deadeye cannon adjacent w cyclotron

[inner moss]

Only by the Anomaly module as far as I know, tightens spread by 25%

[cloud ember]

And torpedos w rockets

[ruby beacon]

I was SURE that the deadeye is some kind of a sniper

[cunning iris]

I was sure it would be something for the rocket launcher lol.

[ruby beacon]

Name's deadeye too

[cloud ember]

It’s literally described to be a precision weapon

[sudden anchor]

Scope attachment for the multi tool would be awesome.

[ruby beacon]

Feels right at home with snipers

[empty marlin]

sure hope somebody comes to the last rendezvous station 😂 This is probably the wrong time of day to be trying to do this milestone

[ruby beacon]

my positron? Ejected
Me? Dejected

[cloud ember]

Why they made the weapon described to be precise adjacent to the starship weapon equivalent of a shotgun is NMS BEYOND me tho

[sudden anchor]

Since I never use the shield so the right click would be more useful.

[hardy tendon]

Hi

[ruby beacon]

[hardy tendon]

Dang no one said hi back 😔

[ruby beacon]

Hi fam

[empty marlin]

Day is almost over, but tomorrow instead of the errands I should do, I am definitely spending the day back on my main save, in relieved bliss

[split rapids]

hi back

[sudden anchor]

BYE!

[empty marlin]

hopefully finding out some lore via the main quest

[hardy tendon]

Ayyyyy les gooooo

[kindred ether]

If i dismiss a companion I got from an expedition reward can I get their egg back from the expedition rewards

[cunning iris]

I mean...

[sudden anchor]

I have zero energy to work today

[cunning iris]

Only if other player gives you as a gift

[kindred ether]

...can I keep their egg?

[empty marlin]

Can you make a new save and reclaim the expedition reward?

[hardy tendon]

Can we use an egg sequencer on Expedition pets?

[cunning iris]

Without hatching? You can yes.

[keen ivy]

I want to be interested in playing again ...

[sudden anchor]

<- has never made anything with an egg...

[gaunt finch]

So the regular landing gear for corvettes doesnt retract

Am I the only one with this issue ?

[empty marlin]

do it

[sudden anchor]

Too much sciencing

[ruby beacon]

What

New bug?

[gaunt finch]

perchance

[kindred ether]

I just don't have enough slots because I get guilty abandoning a companion

[empty marlin]

it's supposed to retract? It doesn't look retractable

[spring raptor]

Why do people use the Thunderbird landing thrusters so little? I mean they'd make for a great heavy cargo vtol

[ruby beacon]

Like it just stays extended?

[gaunt finch]

yes

[ruby beacon]

If only they spin

[spring raptor]

...

[ruby beacon]

damn

[gaunt finch]

also iirc isnt regular landing gear suppossed to adjust height with terrain ?

[ruby beacon]

I only use the mag one

[ruby beacon]

Yeah

It doesnt anymore?

[gaunt finch]

it also doesnt do that anymore

[spring raptor]

U realize mag has less stat boost than regular right?

[ruby beacon]

[gaunt finch]

but the thruster animation still works

[ruby beacon]

I do not care

[cunning iris]

lol, can relate. I did let some go though. Would at least try to find their natural habitats before doing so. 😕

[gaunt finch]

well gues im switching to mag field for now

[ruby beacon]

Stats are the last thing i worry when making a corvette

[empty marlin]

just got jumpscared by a bluetooth speaker I last used two days ago informing me that its battery was low

[spring raptor]

I like the normal ones, because you get to see the hydraulics confirm to the terrain

[ruby beacon]

I just dont like how they extend

Makes it look like your ship grew legs and is waddling away

[cunning iris]

...same. If I could I wouldn't even bother adding weapons. They'd come as a tech later.

[spring raptor]

I like the Thunderbird landers, because not only are they landing feet, but also main engines

[ruby beacon]

So real

[empty marlin]

I'd pay extra for that

[ruby beacon]

I HATE how the weapons look

[cunning iris]

All those reactors. A pain to integrate them into the builds or hide them

[ruby beacon]

Why are they even on a swivel....

We dogfighting

The turrets cant exactly rotate

Why not just give us a 1x2 block guns or smth

[empty marlin]

is there a simple way to get back to the first expedition rendezvous station?

[ruby beacon]

Instead of these turrets

[south bolt]

It'd be great if other players on your corvette could take control of certain weapon systems.

[storm pebble]

they kinda do, few degrees. Also when you're in first person mode, appaenly oher player sees your ship poining in one direction but firing in another.. but not you ;/ weird game engine,lol

[ruby beacon]

Ceto reactors are pretty nice

[cunning iris]

Check the teleporter in space stations; rendezvous systems are marked. You can check which one is the first one in the pinned messages #nms-expedition -- in case there's any doubt

[ruby beacon]

I almost always include em

[spring raptor]

You know the deadeye cannon is a resized titan sublight thruster?

[empty marlin]

exactly what I needed, tysm!

[ruby beacon]

Yeah just a few degrees, but that doesnt need a whole rotating base

[bold shore]

I’m playing on the PS5. Is there a 2:35 widescreen ratio aspect?

Or any other similar options. This game is so incredible that I feel like an ultra wide scope would be appropriate.

I’d check but I’m at work.

[ruby beacon]

Ik

[cunning iris]

Oh they look nice, but they are huge. I can never fit them anywhere in my small ships lol.

[ruby beacon]

Oh right yeah

Im too used to beeg builds

[kindred ether]

I have pumped this egg full of elements to make this thing bigger and more aggressive

[spring raptor]

I go straight for 4 zenith, 1 azmuith

[kindred ether]

The parent already looked like a chameleon wolf so this thing will not be pleadant

[ruby beacon]

I use 1 ceto for the whole build

Rarely 1 or 2 zenith for some greebles

[sudden anchor]

Just saw this on Reddit: KatWalk-VR treadmill

OMG...you can skydive in nms.

[spring raptor]

I get 3x ceto effect for onr shield upgrade, so i dont use ceto

I use zenith for warp range, and azmuith for auto charge

[ruby beacon]

skydiving is fun

[sudden anchor]

Except in VR mode...and you can lift your whole body

Are Reddit links allowed? https://www.reddit.com/r/nms/comments/1nry3hy/ive_been_waiting_a_decade_to_sky_dive_out_of_my/

Not bad for $1,200 honestly.

[lethal adder]

Skydiving

[empty marlin]

kek

[ruby beacon]

is this bug fixed yet?

😭

[empty marlin]

there's only one person in anomaly, and their corvette crashes me as soon as I load in

[sudden anchor]

I get slapped every time I get into my Corvette...like I touched hazardous flora

[lethal adder]

Haven’t checked with latest patch (too busy pissed at cockpit laser bug)

[ruby beacon]

[empty marlin]

oooo

also rocket jump worst upgrade

anybody knows how to scale things below the wire glitch limit
i need to scale down this bubble tube

I found this screenshot while searching for that one 🤣

[sleek quest]

Happy birthday?

[ruby beacon]

😭

[exotic lynx]

part of the stairs part of the crew

[lethal adder]

PD you do less damage and take more damage

[sleek quest]

Also every time you land a sentinel drone spawns

[soft bane]

Ohh ok. I was gonna say "just look at the ground bro!" But that makes sense

[sleek quest]

You cannot call your ship unless it's at 100% launch fuel

[soft bane]

That's pretty sad ngl

They found the no man's sky dark souls planet

[lethal adder]

There are no paradise planets in PD. All have a sentinel presence

[split rapids]

heh

[soft bane]

Good to know, I'll never touch that mode lol

[empty marlin]

100% would have killed me 😂 my whole problem with it is that I can trigger it consistently when I'm just wandering across the desert, but as soon as there's a ravine, I'll just psssht a little and fall

[soft bane]

The chill aspect is what I love about this game

[sleek quest]

Bro what

[soft bane]

That's gorgeous

[split rapids]

it happened to me a long time ago xD

[sleek quest]

lmao

[hollow aurora]

You know... Corvettes are kinda fun to just chill and sightsee while the autopilot keeps your ship flying.

[lethal adder]

Also

[sleek quest]

So now we have someone nicknamed "Anime"?

[empty marlin]

honestly I love skydiving 😂 There's no practical reason to do it, but eh

[sudden anchor]

Ya...autopilot and go make some coffee

Just don't do that IRL

[sleek quest]

So at any point I can say I have @ god and @ anime on my side lmfao

sorry for OT, but this gets stuck in my head every time the third call for Thom the fryer operator on the radio gets no response at work

[sleek quest]

There is for me, my pc takes time loading terrain to land, so if I skydive I can just be on the planet without waiting for terrain gen to land my ship

[empty marlin]

cool, that's clever

[exotic lynx]

i supercharged my nip planter

[empty marlin]

mmm supercharged nips

[lethal adder]

When I rebuild my corvette I’m going to do the glitch to put a Minotaur on my hull. So I can titanfall from space

[exotic lynx]

ity has 3 turbines

[empty marlin]

dang, same bug again trying to get hitchhiking lol

[exotic lynx]

yolo

what could go wrong

[empty marlin]

warp for 3 minutes and then I'm magically in my corvette in space

[sleek quest]

Get yeeted out when ship leaves?

[empty marlin]

close

[sleek quest]

Oh that one, if their warp finishes before yours it will disconnect you two

[empty marlin]

it's weird, because I don't think they're really warping, at least at first.

[sleek quest]

It's best to hitchhike from space station

[empty marlin]

It's just immediately when they take off in the bay, goes to the warp screen

[empty marlin]

oooh, so I'm literally just in an NVMe fight with a thunderbolt SSD 💀 that makes sense

[hollow aurora]

I still despise how the short range teleporters don't work on corvettes

[sleek quest]

Okay for my main save, I am thinking a corvette with 4 shared rooms

[soft bane]

It's true I'm literally every anime ever

[inner moss]

I'm honestly bothered more by the fact that we can't remove the Photon Cannon if we wanna use Phase/Positron

[empty marlin]

thanks; this was my intuition. Got impatient so tried the anomaly again

unless you want to

[sleek quest]

Let's get back to topic

[empty marlin]

yes, my degeneracy is very off topic here

[sleek quest]

I assume an example of one of those sus animes

OH GOD I AM GONNA TRY MAKING A B2 BOMBER CORVETTE

[wheat grove]

Then why post it? 🤔

[inner moss]

At least the description of the Deadeye designates it as an upgrade for Positron. The torpedo systems that upgrade cyclotron still falsely claim they improve the ROCKET TUBES

[ruby beacon]

dew it

[hollow aurora]

Probably... Honestly not the worst anime name ive seen.... Things can get really strange there...

[ruby beacon]

I reincarnated as a vending machine

[wheat grove]

Whatever it is, its best to keep the terms of words to yourself sometimes @empty marlin. If you know it might be inappropraite, then don't post it here.

[sleek quest]

I ain't that deep of a diver

[hollow aurora]

Can we get back on topic, or are we going to dig into my joke for 20 minutes to find it's not as inappropriate as you're thinking?

I can see the option to toggle follow or manual for third person camera
But how do I toggle the same thing for flight camera

Like I wanna be able to see anywhere

[empty marlin]

unfortunately, they took me to the anomaly and I don't know where a teleporter is here 💀

[ruby beacon]

Same menu

In flight

I am enjoying gek so far. Being short is interesting

[empty marlin]

[inner moss]

Getting your consciousness scanned and copied into a hypercomputer but when you die your prime consciousness joins with the copy in simulation

[blazing light]

meep

[sleek quest]

More on the line of, before I die just wire my brain into a computer

[wary moth]

Not third person toggle
I'm saying when I am flying in third person and press alt to look around it don't let me look behind me
I checked and apparently the camera is follow and I gotta switch to manual
But I don't see that

[empty marlin]

oooh, cool

[sleek quest]

If you try to mimic my consciousness, sure its gonna be cringe but it's not gonna be me

[empty marlin]

if you ride with somebody to another station, looks like your ship comes to the station as if you'd teleported there

[ruby beacon]

Oh

Camera is springy

[sleek quest]

You cannot see behind you in ship except photo mode

[ruby beacon]

I think you need a mod for that

[wary moth]

Ye that
I want total free cam

I kinda like the existential and uncanny implications of the "real you" getting infodumped into your copy upon brain death.

Something something unwitting confirmation of the existence of the soul and its manipulation thereof

[autumn onyx]

[lethal adder]

Miranda class

[inner moss]

... this could be an interesting horror sci-fi premise actually

[wheat grove]

i was about to say "miranda class" 🙂

[sleek quest]

It's just gonna be a flawed copy, like what they are doing with Stan Lee

I wanna play NMS forever after my death

[lethal adder]

I did a basic constellation class but have since destroyed it

[solid blaze]

yes or no after the expedtion is done and gone do i get to keep the save (like i want to continue playing on it)

[inner moss]

... wait did I just rehash the premise of SOMA

My bad

[sleek quest]

I don't wanna leave an illusion behind that is playing the game for me

[empty marlin]

yes

[wheat grove]

I wonder what class is this, but many say Nova class

[lethal adder]

Would the illusion know it was fake?

[empty marlin]

afaiu it converts automatically when the expedition ends, and mine just converted to a regular save as soon as I collected the last milestone

[lethal adder]

Looks kinda Nova yeah

[sleek quest]

I would know that it's not me....because....yknow, I would be ded

[wheat grove]

Whenlooking from aft, for some reason it looks like another class of ship

[sleek quest]

Just take my brain and graft some wires and sensors into it

[empty marlin]

ok hold still

[inner moss]

I was talking more about the premise in which the horror aspect would be that the copy after your death IS you because the "you" that you are, through means horrifying and unknown, found its way to your copy and made it "complete"

[sleek quest]

And a blood pump

[empty marlin]

I regret to inform you it will be 10 gauge amplifier power wiring and some O2 sensors, though

[sleek quest]

Sounds like a prank I would pull post mortem

why??

[split rapids]

i dont want free unlocks, the game is easy enough

[autumn onyx]

[sleek quest]

"Sweetberry, need more sweetberry"

[smoky jasper]

whatever you need to craft for your quest might contain an element in a system you need that drive to get to

[sleek quest]

Quick question: How can I distinguish between lush and paradise?

[lethal adder]

Hexberry. Need that amazing anomalous jam

[smoky jasper]

isnt paradise a sub class of lush?

[split rapids]

lush planets with no sentinel and beautiful weather are paradises

[sleek quest]

I am not sure

[lethal adder]

Paradise will say paradise. No storms and no real sentinel presence

[sleek quest]

Any other synonyms?

[sleek quest]

Gotcha thanks

[lethal adder]

Will say paradise when scanned from space.

[warm carbon]

im thinking its jsut the science,multi tool and farm terminals that are churning out free tech. i use mods to make such tech cost 10 times more. i really hate getting it free

[sleek quest]

Time to find me some 🍐 🎲

[lethal adder]

Ground scan is unreliable

[warm carbon]

they also need to remove portals from the game

[smoky jasper]

freighter scan is the way to go

[warm carbon]

they go against the whole concept of NMS

[sleek quest]

If you want a real challenge play abandoned mode

[split rapids]

fun fact: on "On foot: hostile" difficulty, you can't find a paradise planet, because every lush planet has sentinel (source: i'm playing on that difficulty)

[empty marlin]

time to watch silly videos and take sleep meds. gn all

[warm carbon]

im playing PD with alot of hard economy and damage mods as well as removing teleporters. its pretty good so far. but abandon mode is next once i die

[sleek quest]

Sick

[azure crescent]

How come

You still need a specific combination to get to a planet, it doesn't affect the exploration

[warm carbon]

its about exploration, but also has high focus on trading. trading is an afterthought and super easy when u can literally just bring up a loading screen to sell your goods for millions wash and repeat. dont get me started on outlaw system goods where u can warp to your base,then to a space station risk free and sell... your not a smuggler..your a loading screen sucker pretending to be a smuggler. this is how i see it. portals need to have some sort of cost... hell id use them if it meant i couldnt carry any inventory for example so it could reduce cheesing the games core mechanics

portals also remove instances of risk..if your not travelling you wont be attacked

[split rapids]

so is warping?

[inner moss]

To each their own but I still manually smuggle despite knowing this for the thrill

[azure crescent]

Ohhh you mean the station portals, sorry I thought you meant those portals that allow you to go to a specific planet

[lethal adder]

Took me a bit to realize you are talking about teleporters not portals

[azure crescent]

Yk those stargate ones

[warm carbon]

well i may do it too. because actually i WOULD like teleporters,but on a small scale such as teleporting only from base to freighter and back

[warm carbon]

honestly iv never even used them yet but my used mod also disables them

[lethal adder]

Also just because Teleporters exist, you don’t have to use them

[warm carbon]

thats true

[rough dagger]

hello

[azure crescent]

I see, I hope you ain't playing abandoned mode

[warm carbon]

nah nah on PD but abandon will come next for me

saying il need them big portals?

[inner moss]

Idea for a fix: illicit systems have orange portals and your base has white portals. Traveling through or to a blue portal with illicit cargo flags your arrival and your contraband is immediately confiscated, with your reputation dropping with local race proportional to the amount of contraband seized.

[azure crescent]

Yeah abandoned mode doesn't have wormholes so if you dont use portals, you'll have to manually warp to the centre if you want to change galaxy

[warm carbon]

sounds great to me

[azure crescent]

Which is annoying in the one mode that also lacks freighters

[inner moss]

Portal system keeps its potential, smuggling actually requires smuggling. Fix'd

[azure crescent]

I mean, smuggling is still just "smuggling"

[inner moss]

You know what I mean, you gotta bring the stuff in manually

[rough dagger]

based idea

[azure crescent]

You warp to a normal system like 10 seconds away from space station so you just fly to it and offload your cargo, I often had authorities start to scan me but not be able to finish the scan before I docked

[warm carbon]

for me im at a dilema. on the one hand i wana get to galaxy centre in PD(NOT FOR ACHIEVEMENT I COULDNT CARE LESS) But i also wana portal back to my in progress base from time to time in the current system. but if i get x distance away its not doable obviously. so i either settle,build, or move amognst the stars never to have a base....or...i use portals and feel cheap

[inner moss]

That big hanging station eyeball ain't worth much if it can't vet teleportation arrivals

[kindred ether]

I had both a good idea and a very bad crazy idea

Good idea: add an aquatic fossil type because putting 2 sets of flippers the game still says it walks on land
Crazy: be able to reanimate the fossils jurassic park style to get customizable pets

[warm carbon]

btw.. i wana take a moment to acknowledge how nice, subtle and fluid the character idle animations are. one of the better games iv seen

[inner moss]

I'm not that fond of bases in NMS personally. Objectively I'm glad they're in the game because I know other folks love them, but my main base is in my freighter because I'm ultimately a nomad

[warm carbon]

i guess that will be the way i do it too. perhaps in abandoned mode, its better for a base build

[azure crescent]

For me, bases are the extension of my exploration, a way to mark a planet I really really like

[inner moss]

Can you even get freighters on abandoned mode?

[inner moss]

Yuh this

[spice ether]

No

[azure crescent]

No

[spice ether]

Your best bet is corvette

[warm carbon]

yes i like this way to think too. build a quant base, spend some time, farm, gather, then move on leaving it for some other adventurer who may stumble on it in the future

[rough dagger]

i do want a "home system" but not as a place to stay, more as a place to come back to

[tired bloom]

bases serve a purpose to quickly return to a planet for an array of reasons.

[rough dagger]

ultimatly my only goal is to travel the stars

[warm carbon]

yeah feel that. my system has 4 planets and 2 are lush

[tired bloom]

you're supposed to build at least one base in each galaxy you go to so that u can quickly return to that galaxy for several reasons.

[warm carbon]

guys if i use the anomaly detector, how often will it find a black hole? and what else can it find?
iv collected like 12

[rough dagger]

i might call a starcab to one of the unexplored lush galaxies

[inner moss]

To specify, my very first base is on a paradise planet with orange plains with a Portal beacon-marked only 1000u from the base itself, which sits on an S class Electromagnetic field

[coral notch]

I somehow got lucky enough for my first paradise planet to be a chameleon planet

[azure crescent]

I like to make my bases on extreme worlds

[tired bloom]

It can lead to any of the 28 distinct encounters available in the game's space anomaly system, including derelict freighters, living frigates, rogue black holes, Dyson lenses, and others like alien traders or Sentinel tech.

[rough dagger]

mostly it finds things like the hyperjump beacons and the gaseous sentience

[warm carbon]

my small lush planet base il need to say goodbye to soon in search for the centre

[tired bloom]

chemeleon plants are exceedingly rare. mind sharing coordinates?

[warm carbon]

thats pretty cool actually

[rough dagger]

wait can i use the discoveries menu to find my first system?

[warm carbon]

never did a derelict yet, they fun?

[uncut vector]

For a long time now(months), any time i log in i get the message "inventory full" and sometimes while doing stuff, thing is, my inventory is not full. Any idea why this is happening?

[warm carbon]

what mods?

[coral notch]

I have a pic of them somewhere. Mind if I dm them to you?

[uncut vector]

zero mods, ever.

[tired bloom]

sure. ty

[rough dagger]

eh, they're ok

[cunning iris]

First time is pretty fun I guess

[warm carbon]

i had this issue with mods before. id say try empty all inventory and upgrade a slot, die and reload (if not PD) and test

[rough dagger]

i like blowing up freighters for my freighter upgrades

[uncut vector]

all slots fully upgraded, but i can try emptying inventory, i've never had a mod installed for NMS

[rough dagger]

even it if tanks my repuation

[cunning iris]

Arguably that's more enjoyable yes lol.

[inner moss]

Chameleon planet?

[warm carbon]

im up to rank 50 with the robot bois. i wana keep good relations outa RP. I go to GEK systems to plunder and pillage, and i take no prisoners

[copper berry]

I got into a habit of doing that soley in expeditions and then transferring the upgrades back to my main save when I finish the expedition. Items transfer but reputation does not

[uncut vector]

Ooooooo that is a really good idea! when done with an expedition go around and pillage !

[cunning iris]

Dammit, that's clever. 😆

[rough dagger]

i have like 100 with the trader bois, 130 with raider bois, and 300 with the robo bois

[copper berry]

But you can also use a forged passport to reset it to 0

[warm carbon]

its can go 300?

heres me thinking i nearly maxed it

[rough dagger]

i think the limit is the 32 bit integar cap

but i havent tested that myself (obv)

[uncut vector]

I have over 500 standing

[copper berry]

During the helldivers inspired expedition, I farmed tons of S class freighter upgrades and ended the expedition with like -300 with the Gek but enough upgrades to max out everything lol. Returned to main save and back at like +500 with the Gek

[rough dagger]

nice

[warm carbon]

iv modded my squadron to do 20 times norml damage to enemy pirates, they are helpful now. i plan to get 3 more pilots and go full anti Gek pilgrimage

[cunning iris]

friend! friend. friend?

[rough dagger]

ew gek

[copper berry]

Also a good way to farm nanites if you just sell the upgrades

[rough dagger]

gimme my korvax/autophage back

[inner moss]

I dunno if they changed it but breaking open the storage modules on the larger freighters don't cause rep to drop, it just causes aggression... killing the smaller hauler ships (and the crew in the process) is what caused/causes rep decrease

[rough dagger]

im like 99% sure it drops rep

[copper berry]

Yeah but if you want S class upgrades you have to fully destroy the freighter

That's what I did

They drop S class 100% of the time

[rough dagger]

do c-a class freighter upgrades even exist

outside of blueprints

[copper berry]

From derelict freighters yes

[copper berry]

Same with B and A class

[inner moss]

I just harvested S class mods from a derelict guaranteed to drop them

[copper berry]

Yeah they can drop there too

It's just destroying npc freighters is much quicker lol

[inner moss]

Had to 'procure' expansion modules from freighters though

[rough dagger]

frigate modules are such a pain

[inner moss]

This derelict had an extremely small interior space and you could reach engineering through just 4 rooms

[rough dagger]

i nearly have everything unlocked besides the frigate recipies and the red-blue hyperdrive upgrades

[inner moss]

Was also prior to Outlaws so the passport didn't exist to reset rep

[smoky jasper]

get to max with the guilds and you'll be tripping over free frigate and expansion modules at space stations

[clever tendon]

factual information

[cunning iris]

When I did the run, I did pick one that would yield perfect hyperdrive modules always.
Was impressed such derelicts even existed.
...it worked.

[rough dagger]

i find thats not very fast personally

until we get a system scanner in corvettes

[tired bloom]

theres no hard cap on reputation limits both positive or negative in the current game build.

[copper berry]

Rescuing an npc freighter from pirates and accepting the reward instead of the freighter will almost always give you a cargo slot expansion. If you're in an expedition and do NOT ever accept any of the freighters, you'll get the encounter constantly instead of every 3 hours. You can use this to farm cargo slots and then send them back to your main save

[rough dagger]

then it will be very fast

[inner moss]

I've been trying, it's a lot harder with the explorer/merchant guild. Combat guild was easy because I had a surplus of donation items

[pseudo basin]

i just got a zenith class reactor with a 4% chance 😭

[rough dagger]

i lost my best combat frigate yesterday...

[rough dagger]

i got something at a 13% chance once

[clever tendon]

may that combat frigate rest in peace🙁

[rough dagger]

indeed...

[clever tendon]

so terrible when that happens

[wary moth]

Do star colors have any meaning

[rough dagger]

different colors have different weights for generation

[wary moth]

So is it like
Red is bad
Green is safe
Yellow is mid
And purple is legendary?

[rough dagger]

for example green systems are unexplored a lot of the time

reds are often abandoned

[cunning iris]

Not quite, although you could make a case for purple stars being more... fun perhaps.

[rough dagger]

purples have water worlds and gas giants

[copper berry]

There's a ton of crazy bullshit you can do by doing expeditions from your main save via the anomaly terminal:
-Duplicate any upgrades, such as X clas upgrades, by cloning your stuff in the expedition and then removing the upgrades and sending them back.
-Farm all freighter stuff by attacking npcs and not messing up your main save reputation.
-Get ship parts, like iron vulture parts, by both cloning your ship and accepting quicksilver ships if allowed.

[tired bloom]

different color systems will contain system specific resources tied to that color code.

[rough dagger]

sadly i couldnt get any iron vulture parts this expo

[copper berry]

I've used expeditions to duplicate an almost maxed X class scanner module like 6 times lol

[wary moth]

But how do I warp to other colors
Rn I can only go to yellow

If I progress story will it unlock or do I gotta do something else

[copper berry]

I know refiner duping is a thing, but at least the expedition method feels less cheaty

[rough dagger]

get upgrades at the anomaly for red green and blue

[wary moth]

Anomaly?

[rough dagger]

you need to do a special questline after you finish the story to get purple

[rustic flume]

What do I do if a planet isn’t loading correctly? The planet I live on has a massive area of unloaded terrain that I can’t land on

[cunning iris]

And a different, more wild terrain generation.

[wary moth]

Ight

[rough dagger]

that magic space sphere you can summon

[tired bloom]

the best way to unlock the warp drives that allow u to travel to different color systems is by just playing thru the games main questline. it unlocks based on progress that way or u can grind nanites and buy the upgrades from the anomaly.

[flat bough]

Sneaky!

[wary moth]

Oh that thing alright

[cunning iris]

Like a hole in the ground?

[rough dagger]

im enjoying multiplayer way to much

coming from switch it seems so cool for no reason

i dont even have friends to play with

but now i have 20 destabilized sodium in my freighter so

[rustic flume]

No, I used a map to find a drop pod, went in orbit to travel faster, and when I got there all the terrain was flat and featureless with blurry textures. It said I can’t land as well. The drop pod was missing as well

[flat bough]

My starting planet did this a lot when I first got the Roamer (assume no actual association but I remember it clearly).

I had to load the save a lot for maybe 3/4 sessions and then it stopped

[inner moss]

I'll keep that in mind, thanks. Already completed Corvette on my main save...

[cunning iris]

Save + reload fixes it? (Might want to do in the space station); otherwise, save, quit the game, relaunch, load save

[sleek quest]

Terrain hasn't loaded yet, wait till you see trees and rocks around you

[rough dagger]

ok hot take

nomad is better than pilgrim because it goes over water and glides really well

[sleek quest]

Happens all the time with me

[flat bough]

This too, actually closing the game regularly always helps

[sleek quest]

The very reason why I love skydiving

[inner moss]

Exomech best exocraft, big hops

[cunning iris]

Sometimes it doesn't load at all because there's some memory leak or something...

[sleek quest]

That one never happened to me

[rough dagger]

an even hotter take: A hot dog is not a sandwich, its a taco

[flat bough]

I got deepest ocean falling into my planet

[sleek quest]

That takes about as hot as a dog's nose

[rough dagger]

i did that but i didnt want it, wiped an hour of progress to get rid of it

i didnt want my deepest ocean record to be 17ku on a planet with no oceans

[sleek quest]

Sounds hilarious

[inner moss]

Where's the tortilla?

[cunning iris]

Depends on the system / platform. I personally have never seen it too, even on Mac of all places.

[solid blaze]

guys in the like derelicated freigthers can there be aliens

[sleek quest]

Ever had a "naked taco?"?(mods lemme explain), where the chicken is the tortilla?

[inner moss]

Yes... kinda

[solid blaze]

what do you mean

[sleek quest]

Anything can be a "tortilla"

[inner moss]

If you count biological horrors as aliens

[rough dagger]

theres bug lookin things

[inner moss]

[tired bloom]

yes. there are some that will spawn the abominations

the ones that are a nod to the aliens franchise univserse

[sleek quest]

For the last time that's just me you are seeing, I am NOT that ugly

[hidden mason]

Good morning ☕

[rough dagger]

idk my brother thinks im crazy for it

[lime haven]

@hidden mason

No stickers in this channel please

[sleek quest]

GET GUNTER'D

Oh Hi anna

[inner moss]

That's probably closer but a hot dog uses a bun with flour that utilized yeast

[hidden mason]

Good morning ☀️

[rough dagger]

ok i have a question
why is your name "Mommy"

[sleek quest]

Good Morning

[sleek quest]

I lost a pact

[rough dagger]

lmao

[inner moss]

[sleek quest]

So Gleam forced me to adopt 127K kids

[jovial solar]

least concerning Gleam activity right there

[spare crater]

So when will the new parts arrive

[shadow breach]

5 seconds

[rough dagger]

what new parts?

[spare crater]

I mean look at the update poster

[cunning iris]

That's just artwork

Not indicative of anything I'm afraid

[sleek quest]

Yet

[spare crater]

Wait what

[rough dagger]

i mean to be fair some parts have been datamined but i cant say anything about that here

go ask in #nms-spoilers

[sleek quest]

I want some spoilers on my corvette

[jovial solar]

just because you see something in promotional materials, doesn't mean it's actually in the game

[spare crater]

But they're obviously gonna put more parts

[jovial solar]

that's the consensus, they have a new framework, they can populate it

But only time will tell when we get new pieces for it

[lunar belfry]

I wish I could upgrade my ship more but it's already S class. Like what the frick

I need better parts

[rough dagger]

my ship has a 2.8k jump range its upgraded enough

[white bluff]

That seems beyond his scope as a Discord admin, frankly.

[jovial solar]

if it works for you then yeah its enough

if not then see what can be done to improve that
